That Feeder have produced an album in the same year as the tragic death of their drummer is admirable in itself, but what defies belief is the sheer quality of the songs that make up Comfort in Sound, the band's fourth full-length album. After the exuberant pop (and mainstream success) of 2001's Echo Park, the lyrics here are darker, starker and, much like the Manic Street Preachers' seminal Everything Must Go, intensely personal. From the lush strings and emotional turbulence of "Forget About Tomorrow" to the epic scope and spine-tingling wall of sound that is the title track, this is Yesterday Went Too Soon to the power of Polythene.
"Just the Way I'm Feeling" is classic Feeder (think "Day In Day Out" meets "Undivided", with strings) and has a naked vocal that characterises (and exemplifies) the whole album. "Summer's Gone" plays Muse at their own game (and wins), whereas "Find the Colour" is shameless, glorious pop and a welcome beam of feel-good optimism after the album's stand-out track "Quick Fade"--a heart-wrenching love letter to a much missed friend. The melancholy is inescapable however, because "the love pollution's setting in" ("Love Pollution"--perhaps Nicholas's most perfectly realised song). Only the pointless noise of "Godzilla" blemishes an otherwise perfect record. Mature, sophisticated and epic, Nicholas's design for life has made him one of the most gifted songwriters in Britain today. This is awesome, but devastating. --Ben Johncock
Description
'Comfort In Sound' is the first new material by the London-formed indie-rock act, Feeder, since the death of their drummer, Jon Lee, in January 2002. The album has been described by critics as a more thoughtful and reflective set than the uptempo guitar pop of 2001's 'Echo Park'. The single, 'Come Back Around', is included.
